Knight of Cups…

This week is all about our emotional life - isn’t it?!? So many cups - so little time! A new dashing energy has pranced into your life and everything suddenly feels delicious! This comes to you in the form of a highly engaging human - someone that is charming your pants off (quite possibly literally). You are opening up to them like a flower opens and reaches for the sun. BUT take a closer look. They may not be exactly how they present to you. Something is a little unusual here. I don’t mean to burst your beautiful bubble, but take a step back, outside of this situation and study it from all angles. They are dazzling, yes, but are they using you to hide from something they have left behind? What wild remnants of thought do they reveal to you in small, cloudy ways? Do they truly look into your eyes when they are connecting with you - or are they distracted by bigger things? And, is this excitement you are feeling true joy or a thrilling response to the tempest they are using to overtake you? Danger is fun until it isn’t. Try to see the whole picture here - they may not be what you think they are. Protect yourself.

“Be careful. Not all are what they seem. Some people pretend to the be beach, but actually they are quicksand.” - Steve Maraboli
